LIVEMIX MIX-16/32
3
4. Control Surface Ports: Each port supplies both power and
audio to connected Control Surfaces through a standard CAT5
cable.
Two indicator lights on each port report device status
information.
The green light will illuminate when a CS-DUO has a
valid connection with the MIX-16.
The yellow light is a fault indicator. It may illuminate
briey when each control surface is powered on. If it
remains lit, this indicates a problem with the port, the
CAT5 cable or the CS-DUO.
5. Option Card Bay: This bay is used to provide access to additional input formats. When using an
option card, such as the LM-DANTE-EXP Dante card, the system must be congured for digital
input. This can be done on the CS-DUO (see CS-DUO guide for more information).
6. Livemix Data Light: This light will change color to indicate the audio and power status of the
MIX-16. With both analog and digital inputs, if the light is off, there is no power to the MIX-16.
Any illuminated light color means that power is on to the MIX-16.
If using the AD-24 with analog inputs:
The light will illuminate green when the MIX-16 is receiving audio data
The light will illuminate red when there is no audio data present
If using the Dante Option Card:
A green light means there is no “problem” with the audio; this could also mean no
connections have been made (See LM-DANTE-EXP manual for more information)
A yellow light means at least one Dante channel is not connected properly (See LM-
DANTE-EXP manual for more information)
A red light means that at least one channel is reporting an error (See LM-DANTE-EXP
manual for more information)
7. USB Port: The USB port connects to a Windows PC or Apple OS X computer, and allows
the computer to record a 2-channel stereo mix of one of the mixes generated by a CS-DUO.
Common uses for this type of recording include:
Recording a worship service for a later podcast
Documenting a band performance for later
evaluation
